No, Tony, the one that I refer to is the one that Diane took a picture of in
our garden and mentioned in her post. We purchased it as Ipheion sellowianum
in 2003 on a hellebore trip to England and kept it in a pot for one season.
We planted it out in the fall of that year and it has been outside,
increasing steadily and blooming every year since. It is in a dryland that
used to never get water and now is watered a couple of times a summer.

Are you saying that Don got his plant from Ashwood? Is Don still with us?
